Last night was the Met Gala, the annual fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute. But more importantly, the event offers the most ogled red carpet this side of the Oscars. This year's gala honored Comme des Garçons founder Rei Kawakubo, at least giving the stars a designer to steer toward.
Beyond that, all bets were off.
